Listener Configuration, Listener

The listener is a process that receives connection requests on behalf of a client application. The listener listens for client requests on a protocol address specified in the listener file.

When running Net Configuration Assistant in standalone mode, you can add, modify protocol address settings, rename, or delete a listener.

Add

Select to add a listener.

Reconfigure

Select to reconfigure the protocol address of a listener.

Rename

Select to change the listener name. If the listener you rename is running, the Net Configuration Assistant first stops the original listener, then restarts the renamed listener.

Delete

Select to remove a listener. If the listener is running, the Net Configuration Assistant stops the listener before deleting it.
